Holden may be gone, but the Torana isn’t! New LX hatch in the works

AutoExec Summary
An Australian company, Drive South, plans to bring back the Holden Torana, reproducing the LX Torana hatch design from the 1970s with modern manufacturing techniques and a 6.2-litre V8 engine. The vehicle will have fibreglass composite bodywork, an aluminium chassis, and 95% of the components will be manufactured in Australia. Drive South aims to produce 100 vehicles annually, all road legal under Australia’s Low-Volume Manufacturer rules, and plans to race the model for development and marketing purposes. The first prototype is scheduled to be built by the end of 2024, and the price is estimated to be around $250,000 when it goes on sale.
